I've never understood wrestlers being labeled as "overrated." It implies that the person saying it knows the true value of wrestler and that others don't, as if there was some way to tell which wrestlers are objectively good (there isn't). Then again, I do the same thing sometimes. That doesn't make it any less wrong, though.
Another thing I've never gotten is people complaining about other people complaining. It seems counter-productive to me.

Melina. She has literally the ugliest hair I have ever seen, she stands out from the other divas in absolutely zero ways except for the split-entrance and the fact that she yells, and her wrestling is just depresing to watch. Kurt Angle any time in the past three years or so. GOD I am so not interested by him anymore. He always wins, and yet he never gains anything! I get it, you're intense, now DO SOMETHING. Also, Ric Flair. Not just recently, I mean ever. He was a fantastic wrestler, of course... I've seen all the classics. I just don't understand how he became the hugest deal ever. Same deal with Bret Hart, actually... I can understand admiring him and thinking he's a great wrestler (and I do), but I kind of can't understand caring about him enough to consider him like number one of all time. melina- you forgot to mention that she is extremly ugly angle- i actually kinda see what you're saying here, though i had never thought of it that way before flair / hart- i can't even begin to understand this. i can explain this: back in the day, many wrestlers had something called "charisma". that is how flair, hart, michaels, hogan, austin, the rock, mankind, and many other became popular. i feel as though you should be familiarized with this term, not because of your own fault, but because thanks to the wwe you haven't seen anyone who has much of it in a long time.
